Prosecutors Push to Dismiss Comey’s Case Amid Legal Dispute

Prosecutors have filed a motion requesting a judge to reject the case against former F.B.I. Director James B. Comey, arguing that the filing attempts to create a narrative of information leaks without solid evidence. Comey has argued that the charges against him should be dismissed as an act of vindict to the Trump administration. The filing appeared to be an effort to construct a narrative that Comey had leaked information to the news media, but without actually tying such assertions to the claims made in the indictment against him.
